Abstract
A 59-year-old woman with oesophageal cancer and a bovine pericardium mitral bioprosthesis was admitted to our hospital after syncope due to atrioventricular block. She died 10 days later due to cardiogenic shock. The echocardiogram taken 6 months before was unrevealing, but by the time of admission to hospital, the patient had large masses in both atria. Computed tomography showed a tumour involving the oesophagus, lungs and both atria.
